Everything You Need to Know About the 2016 Epcot Food & Wine Festival
The fall season is in full swing here at Walt Disney World Florida. You’d never know from the weather since temperatures are hot as ever, but there are other signs. Orange and pumpkins can be seen everywhere on Main Street, the Halloween parties are three times a week (soon to be four nights in October) and Epcot has begun their annual Food & Wine Festival. This is Epcot’s most popular event and it’s running longer than ever before; from September 14-November 14th. As you can probably tell from the picture I do quite enjoy myself at Food & Wine. This picture maaaay have been taken after several drinks that I was required to sample to tell you guys the best ones. (Hey. It was for science people. Someone had to do it.)
The festival is a highlight for many people who look forward to “drinking around the world”. It’s one of the few events that’s more adult oriented, all though children can certainly enjoy it, the emphasis is on tasting unique and sometimes exotic foods and sampling many different alcoholic beverages. Don’t let the word “wine” in “Food & Wine” fool you- the adult beverage options aren’t limited to wine. You’ll find many draft beers, cocktails, mock-tails and slushies along with wine and champagne to satisfy any preference you may have. ***A side note, if you’re not staying on Disney property (and therefore able to use their transportation), consider using Uber for a safe and hassle free way to get to and from your hotel and then no one has to worry about driving.
